“I don’t think they are aliens, but demons”

In the middle of the war against Iran and with skyrocketing oil prices, Trump’s ‘number two’ participated this weekend in the conservative podcast Benny Show, where he promised that He would spend time investigating what he called his “obsession” with UFOs and aliens.

“I haven’t been able to dedicate enough time to it, but I will. Believe me, I’m obsessed with this.“Vance noted with a laugh, showing special enthusiasm about this issue of the possible existence of intelligent life outside of Earth.

““I don’t think they’re aliens, I think they’re demons, but that’s a longer discussion.”said Vance, who is very religious.

Perplexed by this response, conservative podcaster Benny Johnson asked him to elaborate.

“Well, look, I think that the celestial beings that fly around, that do strange things to people. “I think the desire to describe everything celestial, everything that is otherworldly, to describe it as alien,” Vance said.

“All the great religions of the world, including Christianity, which I believe in, have understood that there are things that are strange and difficult to explain. And when I hear about some extranatural phenomenon, I turn to the Christian understanding that there is much good, but there is also evil,” he added.

“I think one of the devil’s great tricks is to convince people that he never existed.“he concluded.

For all this, Vance stressed that, as vice president, he plans to inthoroughly investigate classified files to “get to the bottom of the truth.”

Trump and Obama, confronted by UFOs

The issue of UFOs and extraterrestrial life returned to the political forefront after former president last month Barack Obama and the current tenant of the White House expressed their opinions and what they knew about this issue.

When asked if aliens are real in a podcast by journalist Brian Tyler Cohen, the former Democratic president answered: “They’re real, but I haven’t seen them.” Furthermore, he clarified that there are no secret facilities underground, unless there was a huge conspiracy that even hid information from the president of the United States.

Trump criticized those statements and accused Obama of revealing “classified information” and making “a serious mistake.”

The Republican stressed that He himself does not know if aliens are realbut defended the need to collect and make public government documents related to UFOs, UAP (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) and possible extraterrestrial life forms.

Former President Obama later stated on Instagram that during his presidency saw no “evidence” of contact with extraterrestrialss, although he noted that, given the vastness of the universe, it is likely that life exists beyond Earth.

In 2013, theCIA declassified documents confirming the existence of the Area 51 military basecreated by order of President Dwight Eisenhower in the 1950s for testing the U-2 spy plane.
